I finally have a camera that takes good photos. The idea came from Advent service covers the year before. They just spoke to me. So I called the appropriate people in the Lutheran Missouri Synod and got permission to reproduce the covers into banners. I presented them to Pastor in time for the following Advent season. </p>
<p>The banners are made from cotton twill and are machine applique. </p>
<p>The first one is the angel coming to Mary letting her know she will conceive a child.</p>
